Well, I just finished reading the whole book, and I keep finding myself picking it up - either to reread certain parts or to start from the beginning! This book has been my entryway into the whole energy medicine/Meridian Based Therapy world that exists, that I never knew existed... And I could not be ANY HAPPIER THAT I FOUND THIS WORLD. I have been searching my whole life for the answer... The answer to what you ask? Well the answer to life's problems... How to deal with the wide spectrum of events/emotions that life throws at you, and THIS IS THE ANSWER.

I would recommend this book mainly to people who are looking for an easy and VERY effective way to overcome your fears/anxiety/anger issues, minor depression and anything else to help you get by day by day... This book puts a VERY powerful tool into your hands, and the more skilled you get at it, the more you can do with it. This book is a great place to start for EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques www.emofree.com) and Donna Eden's Energy Medicine stuff (more is in her Energy Medicine book) ENJOY!!!

Many therapists from different disciplines, myself among them, are discovering the power of the amazing techniques described here. I have seen clients eliminate physical pain and emotional distress, sometimes in just a few minutes, by tapping on certain acupuncture points in the prescribed way. Gary Craig, one of the coauthors, is the developer of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). In the first half of the book, EFT is described and then shown by example how it can be used for various situations, from expunging old negative emotions to achieving brand new goals. The writeup of the technique itself is explained simply enough that a layperson should be able to understand this technology. So whether someone is dealing with a "stuck feeling" or a chronic pain, and whether they apply it to themselves in a self-help way, or find a qualified therapist to assist them, learning this technique will be life-changing.

The second half of the book expands on this information by including ways to energize and balance the body's health, immune system function, etc, by other energy techniques. Anyone who has read coauthor Donna Eden's excellent "Energy Medicine" will find themselves on familiar ground with the new material she was written here.

While written simply enough to be usable by a layperson, this book is also usable as a resource by professional therapists, as its many examples are all of various clinical cases, some quite complex, and how they were handled. Very well written, very worth while, and a bargain at the price.
